Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu discloses that Turkey and Israel talked during the Tel Aviv regime’s recent war on Gaza, despite Ankara’s having frozen diplomatic ties with the regime in 2011.

Of course, there's also this...

"From the Turkish point of view, these kinds of meetings and sometimes the transmission of various messages through intermediaries do not constitute dialogue with Israel," Davutoglu noted.

In the short term the decision to deploy Patriot missiles must have been made with respect to Syria.

But this is a precautionary measure [that has just now been resorted to], taking into consideration the most recent developments in the region as a whole, not only in respect to Syria. There is nothing I can say in order to substantiate this, but it might also be another precautionary measure of medium and long-term contingency such as if Israel attacks Iran and Iran wishes to retaliate.
